Gigi Haim (Ginnifer Goodwin) is a young woman looking for a good guy in a sea of jerks. She blames her failures to the much passed around notion that guys act like jerks to girls they like. Alex (Justin Long) is a bar manager who just can't see how cute Ginnifer Goodwin is. It marks the reunion of these two actors from TV show Ed. That's the good part. If that's all, then this would a simple good rom-com.
This is yet another pretty-girl-who-can't-find-a-good-guy rom-com. There's nothing with that other than it's utterly unoriginal. For some reason, all kinds of A-listers descended on this film. Chances are that Drew Barrymore as producer called in quite a few favors. Scarlett Johansson, Bradley Cooper, Ben Affleck, Jennifer Aniston, and Jennifer Connelly are just the big names. The trouble is that they are very distracting. With all the different story lines, none of the actors get enough screen time. They are just sucking away the screen time for the main leads. Luckily I like all the actors involved. Ginniger Goodwin is adorable. If they kept it simple, they would have a great rom-com.
